2022 FactCheck: on Education


Herschel Walker: Removed false claim of being a college graduate from website

Walker's campaign removed a false claim -- which inaccurately said the candidate graduated from the University of Georgia -- from a website for his Senate bid, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported. Walker's campaign deleted the claim, which said that the former football star had "graduated from UGA with a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice," after the paper asked about the reference. The inaccurate claim that Walker completed a degree in criminal justice has been made before.
